Klamath Indians Get $2.5 Million PORTLAND (UPI) -Fifty-one years ago a government survey or accidently short-changed the Klamath Indians 621,824 acres while mapping boundaries for the tribal reservation. Thursday the white man paid for his mistake to the tune of $2.5 million. El Nathan Davis, secretary of the tribal executive committee, announced the compromise set tlement with the Justice De partment which is still subject to the approval of the Klamath tribe, the secretary of the in terior and the Indian Claims Commission. David P. Weston, U.S. tribal operations officer, said the gov ernment paid the Indians about 3 cents an acre for the land aft er the error was discovered. Lut in 1951 the Indians pressed a claim against the govern ment on the grounds they'd been short changed. If the tribe's 2,133 members vote to accept the settlement at a Dec. 7 meeting in Chiloquin, it will mean about $1,066 for each member. Try and By BENNETT CERF- TN A PALM SPRINGS motel, a whole corridor was enter l tained one evening by a harangue conducted by a shrill wife in the motel's deluxe suite. The husband's entire con tribution consisted of a few '"uh-huhs." Suddenly there was a series of bangs, a mo ment's pause, and then the plaintive wail of the wife. "Henry, I simply refuse to speak to you through three locked doors!" The late Joe Frisco, stuttering- comic, was actually funnier off-stage than he was before the footlights. He had an incurable mania for betting on horses that finished last. A friend once urged him to put $10,000 a year aside for s rainy day. "Comes another depression In ten years," explained the friend, "and you'll be sitting pretty with a hundred thousand dollars stashed away." "N-n-nothlng doing," decided Frisco. "With my l-l-luck, therc d be no depression, and I'd Just be -s-.tuck with the hundred thousand!" In Chicago, a bookseller complained to the police that a cu tomer had purchased a copy of "A Dictionary of Underworld Slaps and paid for it with a counterfeit five-dollar bill. 9 lMt, br Bennett Cert.

Many of the tubes which, when tested with gas, seemed to be open, actually were not functioning well enough : to carry an ovum into the womb. This explained the woman's in fertility. Sometimes the trouble was due to adhesions around the tubes. As the doctors said so wisely, much more than pa tency (being open) of the tubes is required for their successful function. In quite a few cases the wom an's infertility could be traced back to a ruptured acute appen dix, perhaps in childhood. This left adhesions which interfered greatly with the functions of the ovaries and the tubes. Strangely, when an infertile woman has so-called polycystic ovaries, which are full of little cysts or bags of fluid, if a wedge is cut out of an ovary, the wom an has one chance in three of becoming pregnant. Of the 126 patients operated on who have kept in touch with their doctors, 21 per cent have become pregnant. , Many claim they have a cure for cancer, but few have. Too many quacks prey upon des perate stricken people.

MEDFOKO. OREGON could be speeding through some U.S. cities at 100 miles an hour. A lot depends on what Con gress decides. Many of the cities rapid tran sit plans hinge on some type of federal aid. Legislation now before con gressional committees would provide $100 million for federal grants in each of the first two years and $200 million in each of the last 'two years of a four year program to aid cities in building transit facilities. Under terms of tne bin, a fed eral grant for a specific proj ect could not exceed two-thirds of the cost of a project. Congressional observers see little chance that the biU will pass this year, but such rapid transit plans as san rrancisco s $790 million project or New York s proposed subway aam- tion will be constructed with or without federal aid. Key Word "Compatibility" is the key word in the rapid transit plans. It nrevents cities sucn as New York, and Chicago, which already have rapid transit sys tems, from switching to the ful ly automated system planned by San Francisco. In cities which do not pres ently have rapid transit systems the compatibility problem may stall introduction of such "wide blue yonder" ideas as com pressed air propulsion or air levitation vehicles. Gene R. Schaefer, director of Pittsburgh's WABCO mass tran sit center, which has assembled as much Information on tne sud- jeet as is possible to obtain, be lieves that most rapid transit systems and most additions to them in the next decade or so will be similar to the systems now in existence. Further, the hard-eyed under writers who pass upon bond is sues may look askance at new, untried methods. Future Markets Schaefer sees five future mar kets for rapid transit: Downtown distribution sys tems to disperse the commuters after they arrive in the central business area. "Closed loop" (no interme diate stops) distribution systems to connect two large shopping areas. High speed shuttle services to connect central business areas with airports or exposi tion grounds. Flexible systems employing either exDress buses or limited tramways on both public and private right-of-way, adaptable to passenger density of zero to 30.000 an hour, for cities in the 500,000 to 1 million population bracket. High speed conventional two rail rapid transit systems, using private right-of-way to bring commuters to the central busi ness area. Downtown distribution might involve shuttle buses, as it does in Chicago and as proposed in Pittsburgh; moving sidewalks, as in Tacoma, Wash.; or a belt system of individual cars, seat ing one or two persons each and STOCKMEN FEED PELLETS Your coarse or unpalatablt roughage will make a base for a modern balanced ration that you can feed with little labor and no wastage.
